COOK Office uear Point View Station, from the fnctorv in Cliicnuo ' GOOLD, LA GRANDE An Interesting Chapter 011 (lint Cltv nud Its Inhabitants. IIV A JJI.J5GATI. We want to thank the Curry Bros, of the La Grande Observer for favors and courtesies extended. It was mainly through their efforts that so uiiiuy of the delegates were privileged to sec the Grand Ronde valley with its diversified industries fruit farms, saw mills, Migar leet factory; its artesian well 850 feet deep and flowing all the time. La Grande is all that is claimed for it in story or in song. The red man, I imagine, as he rode his cayuse across the valley, or as he jerked the fish for his winter store thought it a veritable paradise. We met some old time friends who were in business there. Mr. Watts of Watts & Matthews, AN bina, is there with a very fine drug store; Mr. Hitter, also of Albiua, is nicely located two doors from the Observer office. We also en joyed a very pleasant visit with Mrs. Ritter, who was formerly Miss Musgrove. She says: "This is a good place, but I get so home sick for dear old Portland." In closing I want to express thanks to ex-Mayor J, I), Stoddard and his estimable wife for their kindness during our stay with them, espec ially to the writer, who was so kindly taken care of, while indis posed. Dan's Grill. One of the very finest places in town to secure a first class meal is at Dan's Grill.

Old mission furniture prevails and the parlor is tastefully trimmed in crimson and cream. Neat and cozy private stalls are arranged along one side screened by detp crimson curtains. The silver service is all new and of beautiful design. The culinary department is superintended by Mrs. William son, who is well versed in the art of cookery. The parlor is cool and delightful and promises to become one of the most popular eating places in the city. It is Dan's intention to intro duce special 50c course dinners on Sundays. Dan's Grill compares favorably with any place of its kind in Portland, and Dan is justly proud of his new quarters. The finest of calliug cards at The Review othce.

Something Strange. St. Johns people do not seem to be looking for money in denomina tions of 25c. When one of our advertisers offered a rebate on purchases of 1 or more for the return of their ml cut from this paper, not one per son responded to it, although the ad was very prominent uud the offer was made by n responsible firm. The reason for the offer was clearly stated and continued in two issues of the paper. The management of this pajx-r is interested in the upbuilding of the community, and is assured by the merchants of their continued ef forts to carry a stock as complete as the demands require. This can be done only by the trade calling for their requirements, and by responding to bona fide knowledge conveyed them by this paper in advertising. Boiiham & Currier have another ad in this issue announcing an addition of patterns to their stock in the branch store, 107 S. Jersey. DON'T I I !
